⚠️ Col. Macgregor: Iran Negotiations Are a Pause, Not Peace
In this new Deep Dive clip, Col. Douglas Macgregor (@DougAMacgregor) lays out why the Iran war is not over — only paused — and why Trump’s latest threats to “finish the job” won’t force Tehran to concede.
Macgregor explains that the 60‑day negotiation window was doomed from the start. “If we look at those 14 points… is there really any chance whatsoever that we would ever willingly sign up for all 14?” Agreeing to them, he says, would be a “tacit admission that we were defeated militarily.”
He also breaks down how Israel’s objectives shifted after their initial plan collapsed. “The principal Israeli puppet was supposed to be the crown prince… that failed.” What remains, Macgregor warns, is the push for the “utter and complete destruction of Iran.”
Trump’s talk of bombing infrastructure doesn’t change that reality. As Macgregor puts it, “We’re talking about killing civilians, destroying lots of infrastructure… leaving Iran in complete ruins.” These are not decisive military targets — they’re signals of a preferred outcome that has nothing to do with diplomacy.
His bottom line is stark: “This is not over. We are at pause.” The Iran war, the Middle East conflict, and U.S. strategy are all entering a far more dangerous phase.

BREAKING:
Israel is bombing civilian areas in Ali al-Taher in the middle of the night in South Lebanon.
As Trump rains bombs on Iran,
Israel rains bombs on South Lebanon.
This is what they call “peace.”
The View hosts pretend that AIPAC isn’t for Israel’s benefit and that it’s antisemitic to criticize them. Hilarious. They seem to have no idea that the rest of the country already knows the Israeli lobby controls Congress. @FmrRepMTG is 100% right here.
According to Agent Hull, the lead investigator of the Charlie Kirk assassination, Tyler Robinson met with "representatives of TPUSA" the morning of 9/10.
Later that evening, officers confirm Robinson was seen in a vehicle with a bald man and 3 other people.
Interesting... 🤔
🚨 HOLY CRAP, FDA Commissioner Marty Makary CONFIRMED the FDA purposefully lied to the people for nearly 2 decades against dietary fats to help Big Pharma
People avoided fat and ate MORE SUGAR, so Pharma could sell them more drugs.
RFK Jr. just declared open WAR on added sugar
“They suppressed the data for 16 years…Those in the low-fat group had higher rates of heart attacks!”
“We created a generation of children with low protein, high carbohydrates, sugar addiction, and burdened with ultra-processed foods, and what did we do as a medical field? Drugged them at scale!”
“Those days are OVER. We are telling people the truth about food.”
MAHA WILL WIN!
Absolutely brilliant answer by @AbdulElSayed to the moronic and ritualistic insistence by mainstream media to ask whether candidates believe "Israel has a right to exist."
It is not that Abdul points out that Israel already exists while no one asks him about the right for Palestine to exist. After all, they are the ones suffering through genocide - at the hands of Israel.
It's that he juxtaposes the question of Israel's right to exist with the question of whether Israel has a right to American taxpayers' money (which it currently spends on genocide).
Just like Mamdani brought the conversation back to the needs of New Yorkers instead of the needs of Israelis, Abdul brings it back to the rights and needs of his constituents in Michigan.
Many won't like me calling it as such, but this is the Democratic version of America First. And it is not surprising that it has such a strong appeal.
@DSA_Watch Governor Josh Shapiro is an unhinged AIPAC-loving psychopath who compared student anti-genocide protesters to the KKK.
We know what he believes in.
Not even close to the worst at Saratoga. This was before your time, I was at the track and backed in to the DD and e xacta. From Google: On August 2, 1986, the filly Allumeuse won the second race at Saratoga Race Course by 1.5 lengths but was mistakenly disqualified to last.
THIS is the WORST DQ I’ve ever seen in my entire life. I’ve been watching this sport for 20 years, my peers on this app have been watching even longer. But this made absolutely ZERO sense.
If you are someone still defending Stephanie White in any way, I have no use for you. She's a lying, abusive, pos who just happens to also be a terrible basketball coach. This is vile, disgusting, hateful gaslighting.
As we said this week on @Dialogue_NRA interview: the MOU was a ruse by Washington & Israel, they had zero intention of engaging in any serious negotiated settlement pathway. Trump & @JDVance have been running fake negotiations in bad faith, fundamentally dishonest & deceptive charlatans….
Who are the 22 Democrats who joined Republicans to vote against @RepRashida’s War Powers Resolution to end U.S. participation in the Israeli war on Lebanon?
189 yes vs 235 no (mostly Republicans)
"Just the whole narrative that's being painted out there... it's unfortunate that it's come to this over basketball."
Alyssa Thomas discusses what the last week has been like for her.
Running an ice cream cone under steaming hot water and it resists melting, eventually it washes away
Many ice creams in America will no longer melt because the ingredients have been changed, they are actually engineered to not melt. Modern ice creams have:
- Higher Levels of Stabilizers and Gums
- High percentages of Vegetable Oils and Fats instead of Dairy Fat
- More Air than standard ice cream, sometimes over 100%
- More sweeteners, maltodextrins and other solids adjust the freezing point
Many ice creams can’t even legally be called ice cream anymore in America
